Re: W7 computers not getting work assignments

I found this: fah-installer_7.6.21_x86.exe . It's described as being for (Windows 7+ 32/64-bit). Is there a chance that if I uninstall the current FAH installation on my Win 7 rigs and install this I could once again be producing work units? I found the installer here: https://foldingathome.org/v7-c...

Re: W7 computers not getting work assignments

Maybe someone could develop something - there are so many W7 rigs that would be able to use it and help FAH production - maybe some oldies lover can be persuaded...?

Re: W7 computers not getting work assignments

It's so sad that there's nothing I can download that would let these oldies keep on working. Please, if you hear of anything I can do in terms of a download modification, I'm ready to try.

Re: W7 computers not getting work assignments

And the processor in my hardware configuration (my old W7 desktop which also is no longer getting work assignments)), is stronger than both the I7-2630 QM and AMD E-450 APU ?

Re: W7 computers not getting work assignments

In reference to my 2 old W7 laptops that aren't getting work assignments, which of the 2 processors listed below is more powerful ? LOL I'm going to give the unit with the weaker processor to someone who needs a computer and can't afford to buy one. AMD E-450 APU Intel core I7-2630QM 2GHz I know thi...

W7 computers not getting work assignments

My W7 computers are not getting work assignments; this has been going on for a few days. Once in a long while one of them will get some little job. My W10 systems are having no such issue. It's true my W7 rigs are old ( a 2014 Toshiba laptop, a desktop with a core I7 860 ) but if they're now so obso...

Re: CrowdStrike issue ?

When I look at Status in Advanced Control, 4 computers show 3 or 2 CPU. The one still working on a project (18806) shows 4 CPU. Thank you for getting back to me - the 4 are all at least 10 years old. The one still working is an Asus VivoBook about a year old. Very relieved - I have nothing in any of...

Does FAH work on Lupus ?

It's been years since I've posted to the forum --have been running FAH since 2006. This morning a friend stopped by, saw FAH running on all 5 of my computer screens and asked me a ? that I haven't been able to find an answer to. Are any FAH projects involved/working on protein folding research that ...

Re: 7.5.1 shows updating but never completes

Hi Bruce, I'm the only user of the computer --it's just Julie and I, and Julie doesn't do computer ( and never has or will ). FAH continues to run perfectly. I only have a slot for the i7 -860 --my vid card is a GTS 250 and apparently not strong enough to run the newer FAH stuff --it seems like that...

Re: 7.5.1 shows updating but never completes

It isnow 1:45 PM Thur. and FAH has been running just fine since my last post -- with all my security software enabled, no Malwarebytes exclusions yet created and the VPN up, FAH has successfully completed at least 1 WU and is working on another (due to complete approx. 4:30 ) . I will report back up...

Re: 7.5.1 shows updating but never completes

I think it has nothing to do with any of my installed security software --on instinct, I restarted FF in safe mode ( all add-ons disabled ), went to the download page and saw the download which wasn't visible before and had no trouble downloading it. I will now run the 7.5.1 exe that I just download...

Re: 7.5.1 shows updating but never completes

I got up this morning and FAH isn't working again --I give up as to the cause --will try another uninstall/reinstall
